So the owner read my review from 2017 today awesome my comment to her comment is. I have talked to some of your ex customers, who's dogs you have also burned like my dog. They said you drink on the job so maybe that's why you burned my dog then lied about it. I sent you the receipts from my vet and their phone number so don't try to lie on YELP. I also never received anything free from you. I visit your hell hole of a store once and never again . You couldn't pay me to bring my dogs back by you . The most awful business owner I've ever met . I'd like to give you -5 stars You did a nice job on the cuts, never said you didn't. I didn't notice anything was wrong till we got home and guessing my dog was in so much pain, she wasn't acting right then she threw up and the acid effected the spot under her chin where you burned her. How was I suppose to see the burn through her hair? And once again I gave you ALLLLLL my vets info and pictures of my receipts when this happened in 2017, not sure if you noticed but it's 2019. Nope no set up, just trying to save another dog from going through what you put mine through. My husband works by your store that's why we tried you out read more

Hana is always so kind to my dog and does a great job making her beautiful! I'm so grateful that I found her.

Disappointing experience. Price was expected for a walk in and in Barrington. Groomer was unprofessional and more importantly uneducated arguing with me on the appropriate grooming for the breed. Didn't have a clue. Trimmed the dog's undercoat very unevenly. She also failed to trim his claws as well as paw feathers. I hope to NEVER return to this place read more

Daniel at Bonjour is an excellent groomer! Our pup always leaves happy and beautiful!

We take our cat here and they do a great job with her, her fur is so soft and she doesn't get stressed at all! We are very happy to have found this place. read more

We recently moved to the area and had a hard time finding a groomer we were happy with until this past week when we went to Bonejour Pet Grooming Salon for the first time. The experience was amazing! First off, the place is so warm and cute and friendly inside, including welcoming treats for both the pet and pet owners! Our dog's haircut was just perfect and he smelled SO good when we picked him up. He also had the cutest bandanna around his neck! In addition, the turnaround time was shorter than other groomers we tried. Hannah was the person who groomed him and she was so sweet and warm and friendly to our dog! The entire experience has made us happy that we finally found a groomer that we love and can trust with our dog! We recommend Bonejour Pet Grooming Salon to everyone and can't wait to go back the next time our dog Nikko needs his grooming! read more

My lovely Wife and I love this place! They take great care of our two dogs and they are always helpful and understanding. We did not like one of our dog's cuts and after a few days passed we called and they were more than happy to cut him again! Great customer service! read more

Bonejour Pet Grooming Salon - Burberry - Pet Groomers Near Me - Barrington, Illinois

Bonejour is the best most professional pet grooming salon in the area. Bogey, my Yorkie will not stand still to be groomed and I have tried many others in the area and they all failed. Christie, the owner has the magic touch. Her years of grooming and knowledge made Bogey's experience wonderful at Bonejour. He always comes home with a perfect haircut Bonejour has never disappointed me. I fly back and forth from Del Mar, California and now will only let Christie at Bonejour groom Bogey. Highly recommend Bonejour. read more

You really get to see the true colors of a business when you work for them or interview like I did. When I arrived at the shop to interview I maybe made it a few steps in before the owner hurried me out asking me to meet at the Mc Donalds down the street. I was dropped off for the interview so I walked. When we both were there sitting down she acted neurotic and gave me the scoop on the other employees working there. What bothered me the most was that she referred to each of them by their race rather than their names. The "Asian One" and the "Mexican One" were the two that she spoke about specifically. When we originally scheduled the interview she had told me there would be a practice dog for me to groom. After the Mc Donalds interview she drove me back to the shop and told me to wait in her car while she went inside to check and see if she still had that test dog for me. After 20 minutes of waiting for her to come back out she told me there was not a dog for me and that I could come back the following day to hopefully do one. I drove 40 minutes to get to this interview in the first place so I had to decline that offer. Also, she told me that my position would not be so much a dog groomer (the position I applied for) but to step in on days she is not there and act as a sort of "manager". I think she said something about how she wants to make more time to play tennis... read more

***GROOMERS*** For as much as I talk about Yelp and how great it is, one would think that I would have read about this place before trying to work there. Hindsight right!? I was told in October by the owner that the groomer position was mine, I just had to wait a month till the groomer I was replacing (due to her moving out of the country) left. Needless to say that never happened. I was strung along through the holiday months all while being reassured that the job was mine just waiting for the other groomer to leave. I was called in to do the overflow whenever there was some, driving during snow storms in heavy traffic 40 plus miles only knowing the night before whether or not I even had work. Fast forward to the new year; I had not had work for 2 weeks, the old groomer was still there and the owner was becoming distant. I went in to talk with the owner and explain that I have been more than accommodating with the situation but needed a real job and wanted to know her intent. I was then informed (by the owner) that the old groomer was not going anywhere anytime soon and I was not on par with the skills needed to do the job. however she would keep my number if there was more overflow. This I took personally, I have been grooming dogs going on 15 years now and have never been told I don't have the skills required to do the job for the animals I love more than most people. I was lied to, used then tossed. Taken with a grain of salt (as I am a bit jaded) the owner does not want to run her business and seems to have checked out a long time ago. ***Clients*** I groom my own dogs so I can only review what I saw and if you are ok with dropping your dogs off at the local one hour car wash to be groomed then Bonejour should be fine, I just prefer to take my babies to the spa. read more

What a wonderful pet salon. I had my ragdoll cat groomed there and they went totally out of the way to make sure he was comfortable. In fact they dropped my cat off at my house when they were done. read more

They do a great job here! Staff is so patient, they just love animals & it shows. Daniel has been our groomer for about a year, & I trust him completely. I love the extra touches, the bandana & feather. My dogs always look adorable and smell great when I pick them up! read more

I have been taking my dog here for at least a year and at first my havanese looked great. I thought it was a cute place and was reasonable compared to other groomers. I do agree that there is one women who I am assuming is the owner who is very short with customers. The other staff is nice. I am not sure who groomed my dog the last two times but they did a horrible job. My dog was choppy and uneven, especially the last time I took him there. It was all underneath and around his butt. He also had more clipper burn around his crotch and inside his legs then I have ever seen in my life it took days for it to go away. There is no excuse for that especially for 50 dollar plus tip haircut. I will not bring my dog back there. I didn't bother complaining to the owner because of her bitchy attitude. I just didn't want to deal with that right before Christmas. read more

Meh. This place is ok, not great. Customer service is ok, not great. I arrived 5 minutes early for an appointment and the groomer was in the back with music on so loud he couldn't hear me even when I shouted. I had to call the shop (while inside it) to get someone to pay attention to me (and she, I presume the owner, sounded annoyed to hear from me). But they do a decent job of grooming, my dog seems to be treated well, and the price is ok ($75 bucks plus $5-15 for each extra like nail trimming, teeth cleaning, etc.). If there was a great place nearby I would go there, but there's not, and this is acceptable enough. read more

I love this place!! Daniel is the groomer we've been getting and he does a great job on our cavalier. I can honestly say I'm a pretty demanding customer and I have no complaints. I have a baby and always seem to be in a rush and they alway help me to my car without me even asking. Great customer service. Our dog means the world to us and we alway feel safe sending him to this salon. read more

BEWARE & BE AWARE Relying on the 25 year experience advertisement, I made an appointment for my 5 pound long hair chihuahua. When I took her in, I spent time explaining what I did and did not want for my dog. I was not asked for any shot records when I dropped her off or when I made the appointment. My chihuahua was totally butchered! Blunt, uneven chops on random parts of her body My daughter picked up the dog and I did not see her until that evening. When I went in to discuss what happened I was met by an unrestrained dog as tall as the counter with free access to the grooming area. If I had witnessed this unprofessional and unsafe environment when I dropped off my 5 lb dog I certainly would not have left her. On the Saturday that I went in there were only two girls grooming, not the owner with the experience.I brought pictures of my dog and I asked how could this happen ? When did she graduate grooming school?..no answer to either question. Then the other girl took over the conversation.She was rude, lacked basic customer service skills and said there was probably something wrong with my dog. This salon is UNSAFE I witnessed: a LARGE DOG LOOSE in the grooming area, NO VERIFICATION OF SHOT RECORDS and the technicians LEFT DOGS that they were grooming UNATTENDED. read more

Bonejour Pet Grooming Salon - My Chihuahua,..you be the judge - Pet Groomers Near Me - Barrington, Illinois

I have been taking my Old English Sheepdog to Bone Jour for 5 years and am now taking my Old English puppy too. I keep them both in full coat, so they require grooming every 1-2 weeks. The staff (especially Daniel!) does a wonderful job with both of them -- the coats, teeth, nails, etc. The dogs love the staff too and are always excited to go for grooming. In addition, the staff pays very close attention to the physical condition of the dogs and have advised me of a few medical issues over the years. I also have a 12 year old cat, who does not particularly like groomers (or the vet, any dogs, other cats or most people). Nevertheless, the staff does a great job keeping him calm and grooming him 3-4 times a year. My vet compliments me every time I take my dogs and cat in for appointments that they are in beautiful condition, which is excellent for both their health and happiness. Thank you, Bone Jour! -Andrea W., Inverness read more

Look at the dates of the more recent reviews. This place used to be a five star groomer because there was one groomer Daniel that was amazing. He's gone and since then the place has gone downhill. My dog got a bad ear yeast infection after his groom. They didn't put cotton in his ears or dry them after his bath and it cost me $95 at the vet for a visit and meds. Plus he was in pain for days. I've been taking my dog here for 11 years and have always been so happy. The last two times it's been a chop job!! They scalped him last time and his poor little head has bald spots!! Looking for a new groomer!! read more

We are very particular about the care as well as "the look" of our little dog! This is the first place we've been that our boy didn't shake with fear when we pull in the parking lot. He may be a rescue, but we treat him like a King! So does our groomer, Veronica!!! She is the BEST! She gives him such attention and remains consistent month after month! We've been going to her for nearly a year. It's worth checking out! read more

If ur dog needs grooming, this is the place to go! The staff is friendly and efficient. I am somewhat picky with my pet's look, and it is why I specifically request Daniel to take care of my dog. He has a good sense of what looks good and what doesn't. Thumbs up! read more

I wouldn't suggest this place to anyone. I've gone a few times, and each time I hesitated because even though she welcomes walk-ins, I was always given the impression I was putting them out. This last time I went there was the most unprofessional visit yet. Without going into much detail, the bottom line was I walked in expecting to pay $25, based on her chalk board and the brochure she had on the counter. When I went to pay, she had asked for $67! I wasn't sure why, and she told me it was based per pound on my dog. I asked to see where that start rate was, but she had no information on it. I felt I was given a random price and she expected I would just pay it. Even her employee came out and said I owed $25, but she quickly and rudely followed that up with "Oh he's just trying to appease you". Then rudely walked away, went in back and yelled out from the back to just leave. The owner of this salon is rude and very un-welcoming. She runs it poorly and very unprofessionally. read more

They did a great job with a pup that was in rough shape! He also seemed to enjoy his visit - not as freaked out as he has been with other groomers! read more

Great place. Clean. Professional. I brought in my 5 year old Golden Retriever for a trim. She looked great. All the hair knots were brushed out. My dog was ready on time. read more

I have been taking my dog Casey here pretty much since they opened, so at least 10 years. Christy and the rest of the staff are all very friendly and they offer excellent customer service. Casey always looks great after grooming and isn't scared to go to Bonejour, unlike other places. Their prices are very fair as well. We would not go anywhere else for our grooming needs. If you have a dog of any age that needs grooming give them a shot! read more

My husband took our 8 month old labradoodle in for a trim today. He said the cut was amazing and Chewy looked straight out of a magazine! He made a last minute change based on what he thought I would have liked and they accommodated . Everyone loves his new cut! We will definitely bring our puppy in again! read more

I've been taking my dog to Bone Jour for 10+ years and am always delighted with their service. Also board my dog there frequently and know he's in good hands. Highly recommend! read more

We love this place! My huge German Shepherd can be a real handful. He's old and needs T.L.C. They handled him beautifully and took extra time and care. We were thrilled with how he looked and how they genuinely cared about our dog. Thanks...we will be back (: read more

I've 4 Maltese and Bone Jour has been grooming them for almost eleven years. I wouldn't take them anywhere else. I know they get the best treatment and their cuts are always the cutest. read more

I have been taking my dog, Malibu and my persian cat, Romeo to Bone Jour for almost 2 years now. The shop is always very clean and decorated like a quaint spa for pets. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Dan is a wonderful groomer. He is very patient and his love for animals is very apparent. Christy, the owner, is very knowledgable and takes pride in her work and her shop. I wouldn't even think of taking my fur babies any where else! read more

Very disappointed that I brought my dog here, never again. I think it was the owner who did my dog, and it looked horrible!!!! Loose ends everywhere, hair sticking out, and my dog came a nervous wreck! Took hours to get him to settle down. PLUS, they never told me that they clipped MOST of my dogs nails too short and I could not stop the bleeding, having to go to the vet. Then the next day my poor dog starts licking his stomach obsessively, and I find they have very severely razor burned his underside which was ANOTHER vet bill! I went to this place once before and had a similar experience years ago and thought maybe they have changed, but I was so wrong. Not sure how they have stayed in business.....The owner is extremely rude and clearly does not care at all. RUN AWAY from this place at all costs! read more

Bone Jour was recommended to me by a friend as soon as we got our first dog 8 years ago. Bone Jour has been grooming and boarding my 2 Shih Tzu's ever since. My dogs tend to be afraid of vets etc, but the staff at Bone Jour is extremely kind and gentle. They genuinely care about the health of your pet. I have received numerous health tips from them over the years, and recently they reported an unusual growth that they spotted on one of my dogs. The grooming service is top-notch, yet competitively priced. The owner showed me pictures from a dog-styling magazine and asked me if I wanted to try something new... My kids just loved what they did. Bone Jour's staff is sensitive to special requests and concerns. One of my dogs does not like to have his rear groomed very short, or he hides for a week. They are very good about making sure to follow this request, yet blending his coat, so that my dog's appearance is still perfect. It takes some time for a groomer to get to know your likes, and your dog. It's no different than going to a salon for a good haircut and style. Bone Jour is definititely the GO-TO groomer in the Barrington area. read more
